National Voter Registration Day – September 22

Christopher Long, Dean of the College of Arts and Letters, sent a collection of resources for National Voter Registration Day by email this morning (September 22nd, 2020). You can find those resources listed below:

CAMPUS AND COMMUNITY INFORMATION – MSUvote

To help inform our community this election season, Michigan State University has created MSUvote, a non-partisan campus committee whose mission it is to increase the number of registered student voters, to inform and educate students on candidates and issues, and to bolster student participation on Election Day.
